I've been in a dilemma for several days and now I'd really appreciate your help. Here is my situation: - Ubuntu Linux (All ports opened) - Apache running on port 8081 - Geoserver Tomcat on port 8080 I'm trying to make a WFS connection by a different pc than the server so I need to use a proxy. In my server I edited httpd.conf and added these lines:
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyPass /geoserver http://mydomain.com:8080/geoserver
ProxyPassReverse /geoserver http://mydomain.com:8080/geoserver
I downloaded proxy.cgi from OpenLayers and edited to add my allowed hosts (localhost:8081, localhost, mydomain:8081, etc.) When I open proxy.cgi in the web browser I'm forwarded to the openlayers site, so I think that python and the script are running correctly. Then I added http://mydomain.com:8081/geoserver to the base proxy URL in geoserver dashboard. In my html I point every script file like Openlayers.js, GeoExt,js to apache so with port 8081. Inside my init function I put:
OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=";
and the vector layer with WFS is like this:
var inc2007 = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Inc", {
styleMap: styles1,
strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX()],
protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
url: "http://mydomain.com:8081/geoserver/wfs",
featurePrexif: "Inc",
featureType: "Inc",
featureNS: "http://mydomain.com:8080/Incendi"
}),
});
I can't see this layer on the map and firebug doesn't log anything. I tried to change the ProxyHost link to "http://mydomain.com:8081/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=" but nothing. What can I do? I really...really need your help.
Thanks in advance for your replies
